For Faculty and Staff

21st century universities are increasingly called upon to explore the “big questions” that challenge our communities, nation, and globe. The Office of Community Engagement can provide support for faculty who want to combine discipline-based scholarship and community engagement.

“Engaging Community” Series.These hour-long forums from the Office of Community Engagement provide regular opportunities for faculty to network with colleagues from across the university, hear about other faculty experiences around community-engaged work, and walk away with new ideas, tools, and/or partners. Check our calendar for upcoming events.

Professional Development. The Office of Community Engagement sponsors a variety of in-depth faculty development sessions designed to enable faculty to successfully pursue meaningful, rigorous, and mutually beneficial projects with community partners. Check our calendar for upcoming events.
